    My ex-SIL used to swear by warmed up lemonade when she had a cold.

    Hugs Glam - hopefully the new plan will help.

    Hugs Glam. No advice because V is still in with us, but your new meal times sound more like ours. After tea at 5 5-30 ish, she's shattered and ready for bottle and bed by half 7.

    Caz - Hope they get Charlie on the mend and feeling a bit better.

    Glam and Jam - Sorry to hear about ur sleep probs too. Feel a bit of a numpty now for moaning about t waking and feeding during the night.

    GISI - Just seen ur signature, Tobys weight seems to be following the same sorta line as Henry!! I havent had Toby weighed for almost 2 weeks now but he was 17lb 2oz on 1st April, they must be v similar!! Thanks for your help backalong about the bedtime routines btw, it helped lots and you prob saw that he now goes down around 8ish (although I might try a lil earlier again as he gets very moany for the last hour or so before he goes to bed).

    Well I am off to bed now, heres hoping for brill nites for us all!! xx

    Hugs to Charlie and Ed!

    Glam - no advice bout the sleeping but thats why C is back in our room. She still wakes a lot in the night but it is just easier for me to get her back off with least dispruption to us all. I'm just waiting for the day she just sleeps for more than 2 hours without any help from me - then I will rejoice (and it will be a one off :rotfl:). Hugs to ya and let us know what is said xxx

    Thanks you everyone else for the hugs - not had them/needed them before and it does make you feel better that others are thinking of ya :D xxx

    I can't be doing with dismantling the cot again - he has slept through before and he will again! I am adamant! In fact I wouldn't mind if he woke up and just wanted his dummy once but its staying up for ages trying to get him back to sleep thats driving me mad!

    You would have laughed yesterday - he fell asleep in the car 2 mins before I got to ASDA. He slept through me - getting him out the car seat, walking round ASDA, packing shopping, putting him back in the car seat and strapping him in! He didn't even stir but can he sleep in a nice comfy cot? NO!!!!

    3 - I'm hoping it will work this way. He fell asleep after his 3pm bottle for over an hour and then at 6.50pm he was shattered so I popped him down for a nap. He woke up at 7.30pm but 20minutes later wanted his bed!

    Where does the time go? :think:

    Glam/3 - K also has dinner at about 5pm(ish) and then is usually changed and having his bottle by 7pm then bed by 7.30 at the latest x

    I'm still not 100% decided where k is sleeping when the new one arrives??

    I noticed, and also somehow knew it was Christopher.
    ooh you're good!
    I took a photo of my eye so I could have a good look at the colour yest when we were talking about it and Chris insisted I took one of his too. He has been a right lil wotsit today , just needed a nap but will he go? no way jose! He was so tired he was slurring his words by bed time.

    LOL Glam - it's called Sod's Law. We are gonna leave C in with us for at least another month and then see if things have improved as we too have to dismantle the cot. We are the other way round now - she is stuck in with us whereas J is stuck in his nursery lol.

    Fatty - I rarely post but when I do, it's usually a moan/asking for help. Regularly reading about you all (I sound a bit odd now) makes me realise C is very normal :-) so thanks to everyone who does post a lot, for whatever reasons, it all helps people who you don't even know are there (cue evil laff) xxx

    ETA I hope that came across right {shrug} - hope so xxx

  • Evening all - *whispers* we had a mini breakthrough tonight with Benjamin going down and kind-of settling with me singing to him outside his bedroom door. He just doesn't want me to leave him but he won't go to sleep whilst I am in the room so this might be a way forward for us for a while. We still had tears but nothing like we normally have. Fingers crossed.


    Not sure if we have any veggies on here (or veggie babies come to that) but Hipp Organic Goodnight Milk is no longer suitable for vegetarians. They have been a bit sneaky and put a sticker on the lid saying 'important information, please read enclosed' and when you pull it off (which you wouldn't ordinarily pull off in store) and then underneath it only says 'no longer suitable for vegetarians' - they could have easily put it on the top!!


    Hope Charlie (and other poorly babies) get better soon.

  • I noticed you avvy, Sami, but I wondered if you'd had it for ages and I hadn't noticed so didn't say anything!

    Fattybooboo- yay for chunky November boys! I hadn't had H weighed for 6 weeks so thought I'd better go. He was exactly where I had expected him to be, which is good. How's Toby taken to weaning? H loves it, it is so sweet to watch him.
